Cowboy Bebop – The Movie
In my opinion this movie completely lost the spirit of the original series. The TV show was all about cool music, exciting action, and interesting stories. The show also had a great feeling of fun. Unfortunatly, this movie forgot to include these great aspects of the original series. I found the movie to be boring and depressing, with very little music or humor.
I saw this movie in the theater on opening night with hundreds of other Bebop fans. Everybody was loud and excited about seeing the movie, but once the movie started the crowd was dead silent. It was not out of respect of the movie, though. It was because we were all so bored. I left about 20 minutes from the end… very disapointed. Rating: 1 / 5
I never liked Cowboy Bebop and I tried to watch all the episodes when I borrowed the box set from my friend. I wanted to see why people liked the series so much, but I honestly couldn’t watch it because it was so boring. I thought maybe the movie would be better, but it’s just as boring as the series. I really don’t understand how everyone can like this so much. The movie isn’t funny, I only laughed like twice, there is nothing good or interesting about the characters, plus I really don’t like the way the way the movie looks. It’s kind of dull and depressing. Am I the only one in the world that doesn’t like Cowboy Bebop? Rating: 1 / 5
This isn’t a bad movie,but may not be a appropriate movie for little kids. Avoid this movie if you want your little children to behave. Buy Finding Nemo instead. Rating: 2 / 5

This film was rife with typical anime “philosophy” regarding the supernatural, aliens, alterna-reality. Fun stuff, right? Not here.
I can’t even begin to tell you what in the world this was about, since I fell asleep about a third into it, played it back, and still hadn’t a clue. I felt like I wasted several hours of my life. Even the animation wasn’t anything to write home about. (1987’s “Akira” continues to blow everything else away.)
Maybe if I’d seen the TV show this would all make sense. But I haven’t, so there it is. For all I hear about the TV series, this film really does the entire Cowboy Bepop phenom a disservice. It just doesn’t work as a stand-alone anime film.
For a MUCH better story involving avenging dead (at least that what I think the baddie in CB was trying to do), rent/buy HBO’s “Spawn” series.
At least the DVD makes a good coffee coaster… Rating: 1 / 5
